My best mate can see the lift offs from his house in Fort Pierce. He sent me some pics of the booster rockets firing up and lighting up the horizon.

The sound is as impressive as the sight. We went to see the launch about 10 years ago. When we lived in Santa Barbara Calif, we heard the sonic boom on reentry as they landed at Edwards in the desert. Then they started landing Florida no more booms |

Is it A-Series only? I think it should be... So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'... On 26th Oct, 2004 Tom Fenton said:

im sure i remember a space shuttle on the top of an aeroplane visiting manchester airport when i was in primary school was a long time ago tho so may have dreamt it Discovery visited the UK on the back of a 747 in 1983. It was here visiting RAF Fairford which is one of the emergency landing sites for the shuttle. I saw it over Stoke, heading towards Manchester so there is every chance it landed there too.. It was Enterprise which did the tour. I find few refferencies to it being seen overhead, but none at Manchester airport, lol, but there are plenty refferncies to the Shuttle car park at Manchester airport. Thats not to say it didn't land there Stanstead perhaps? http://www.fhr-net.co.uk/travel_news/1269/..._shuttle_visit/ Thanks for the correction Sprocket 
Looks like it did indeed visit Stansted http://www.flickr.com/photos/stuart166axe/3064381154/ There was a launch scheduled when we were in Florida 3 years ago, but bad weather delayed the launch, gutted we missed out  At least we saw Atlantis on 39A during the visit to the Space Center though..
